East Bay wedding venue with a BAY view
Berkeley Country Club
For an East Bay wedding venue with breathtaking, panoramic views of the San Francisco Bay, Marin Headlands, and beyond, the Berkeley Country Club is a hidden gem. Perched atop the El Cerrito Hills, it offers sweeping vistas that on clear days even include the Golden Gate Bridge.
Built in the 1920s, the Club’s striking English Tudor–style architecture exudes timeless elegance both inside and out.
Since it’s part of a golf course setting, you can expect well-manicured grounds as well as lush greenery, which are ideal for romantic portraits and candid moments.
After your ceremony, take a quiet moment together at the 18th hole to enjoy your first sunset as a married couple. The golden light draping the rolling hills creates a magical, unforgettable experience.
The Berkeley Country Club offers flexibility for ceremonies, whether you're dreaming of an outdoor celebration or a cozy indoor affair. Want to wow your guests with a show-stopping backdrop as you exchange heartfelt vows? The Vista Deck is sure to be a crowd-pleaser. It’s also a great spot for hosting cocktail hour on a warm, sunny day.
Inside, the vaulted wooden ceiling of the Vista Room evokes the intimacy of a chapel. It's especially glorious when sunlight streams through its lovely bay window. If your ceremony takes place outside, this is a wonderful option for cocktail hour and transitions seamlessly to the reception.
Receptions shine in the gorgeous Bay Ballroom, featuring a vaulted ceiling, dazzling chandeliers, and a fireplace. A wall of windows frames the sunset and distant city lights.
The spacious dancefloor means you can have a live band and still have plenty of room to show off your favorite moves.
If you’re getting married at the Berkeley Country Club and looking for photography that tells the story of your day in a cinematic way, get in touch to make sure that we’re available. We’d love to preserve every special moment for you!
